retro night is tmr..eusoff's own culture night! but....guess what..the darn cultural groups can't even get their acts together...and well..the only thing retro abt tmr night seems to be the deco. i hate putting in so much effort into a project..and jave someone else ruin it for me. i'm sure i can ruin something enough for myself, thank-you-very-much. last night's rehearsal was very disappointing..and i was so annoyed. everyone expects everything from us..though they put in half hearted efforts. and because the groups cannot perform to standards, we're having another rehearsal tonight..not that it'll be much help really..but it ensures they're going thru their steps cos frankly..no one knows what some groups do...or whether they do anything at all. i was so excited abt retro night aft we did our deco cos everything was quite nice..we actually pulled off something decent in terms of deco...and then who screws it up? the stars themselves. no one's gonna notice the pretty cut outs..but everyone who goes will notice the 1 person on stage who doesn't know her dance steps. i was so close to screaming at them last night..especially when people started coming to me demanding changes that were logistically impossible. working as a culture comm is very fun..i really had so much fun preparing for culture night..going crazy with food and deco ideas..and really..though it took me away from work..i enjoyed every minute i was allowed to express some form of creativity (NUS stifles that..really..try to be creative with your lab reports and what do you get..not that i know..but we've been warned to not deviate from the qns given. i have no way of expressing creativity otherwise.). i had fun till last night. technically..the crumbling was by no means our fault..everyone was briefed and things would have gone a lot smoother if the technicals were met..but hey..that's how we know what to work on right?
maybe i'm just annoyed with the groups cos i love performing myself...shouldn't a performer have the integrity to perform to the best they can? it's quite sad the best for some people involve not knowing their steps or not being able to make up their minds where they wanna perform. ok..most of my anger is directed at very specific groups. bleh!!! some people really have to learn the world doesn't revolve ard them..and people will not bow down and kiss the ground they walk upon..or change everything just to suit their every whim and fancy.
ok..i'm hungry..gonna grab some breakfast and study for my test..
let's just hope tonight's rehearsal wouldn't be half as bad. i actually knew something like that would happen when we didn't watch (like a hawk) what each group was gonna do...and track their every progress.
